I know we say we are 100% Rob all the time, but I’m taking this one opportunity to promote a fantastic read and you know we don’t stray from Rob so this must be good.  Most of us know Nick Osborne as the producer of Remember Me, but what some of you might not know is that for the past 5 years Nick has been writing a novel. And what a novel it is. I was lucky enough earlier this year to have read an advanced copy and have been dying to share this incredible story with all of you. Nick emailed me this morning that the eBook is now available at Amazon, Barnes&Noble and iTunes (search “osborne – refuge”). For the next two weeks it’s just $0.99, so be quick to purchase your kindle version for this amazing price. Honestly you will NOT be disappointed. Here’s my review in case I haven’t intrigued you enough:
“What can be more compelling than forbidden love? Refuge introduces us to two unlikely lovers, Charlie a US aid worker and Noor, a headstrong Afghani refugee now living in Peshawar.
From the opening chapters, where we are introduced to Noor’s family as they flee Afghanistan and Charlie, a 25 year old Gulf War veteran who wants to make a difference in the world, to the compelling final chapter, I could not put this book down.
Not only are we introduced to the two main characters, but we are captivated by the myriad of characters involved along the way. Aamir, Noor’s father, a former English professor, and definitely not your stereotypical Muslim father, only wants what’s best for his daughters. Noor’s brother, Tariq, however, has joined forces with a radical mujahideen group and has different plans for Noor. Add to this Elma Kuyt, an ambitious Dutch aid worker, Ivor Gardener, a CIA agent, a Saudi Prince and numerous desperate Pakistani’s and what N Osborne has done is magically weave an intriguing and captivating story.
Will Charlie and Noor find love? Will Noor’s ambition lead her elsewhere? What will happen with the Saudi Prince? If you enjoy angst/romance, then this is definitely a novel you need to add to your Kindle – you won’t be disappointed. I know I wasn’t. I hope Nick Osborne continues Charlie & Noor’s story because this tale has the makings of a saga that I would be more than happy to follow.”
 Quick – go buy the eBook now!
Thank yiou Maria for this! Knowing you it must be worth reading it. Always open to something of the kind. I’ll buy it now and read it soon.Thx love! Maybe a potential new role for Robert?!;-))
I am so excited to read Nick’s book, what a wonderful story. Thank you so much Maria for sharing with us & for your awesome review. Have purchased the ebook & cannot wait to start reading 😀
@maria – I downloaded it this morning and I can’t wait to start reading it. It sounds fantastic. It sounds a little bit like the Bronze Horseman trilogy which I just read recently and fell in love with. Thank you for the recommendation.
Done! Thanks Maria and Nick! 🙂
Wow thanks Maria for the review sounds like a fantastic read will definately be reading this! Have just moved this to the top of my list to read so great to see something a bit different. Congrats to Nick 🙂
Thanks Maria ~ I trust your judgement. Sounds great.
Thanks for the tip Maria. Just purchased it. Can’t wait to read it. It sounds fantastic. Who doesn’t like a forbidden romance huh? 😉
Thank you Maria – have also purchased now and look forward to reading. 🙂
Excellent – thanks everyone who is buying Nick’s book. I’m curious to hear what you all think. I really did thoroughly enjoy it – once I got into it I couldn’t put it down. Was funny because I read it in February (I think) well before Rob’s role as Eric Maddox was announced – I had to chuckle to myself about the coincidence.
Done!!!!
Good to hear @maria – I do love a book that is “unputdownable”. The good thing is I have the kindle app on my phone as well so I can read it during my lunch break as well. Win/Win
Done! Thank you!!
I’m always after a good read. Just ordered it.
Thank you 🙂
The book sounds great and I will support Nick Osborne happily. Bummer I can’t get this in hard copy though. I am a tactile reader.
@Carmel – Nick told me a while back that it will come out in hardcopy eventually. I might even have a little surprise for all of you when it does 🙂
ooooooo @Maria – You are a tease! That is great news!
